Colombia in Denver, Colombia en Denver
As I am traveling around the Denver food community I run along a man that looks at us and asks where we are from. He had told his wife we were surely form Colombia. This was Pete Marczyk at MARCZYC a fine foods store we stopped for goodies. I bought a delicious hot chicken soup with olive oil, salt toasted bread to warm up my Caribbean body in this cold 38F weather. I loved the store with all the different kinds of salsas, the beautiful cuts of meat and the chips to smoke fish or pork. The owner of this place, though I missed his name, had lived in Colombia, putting together a brewery in Cali and in the outskirts of Bogota. Do not miss Argonaut Liquors if you come to Denver either, it is the most wonderful wine store I´ve seen around.
